ENERGY STAR® is a government program that offers businesses and consumers energy-efficient solutions, making it easy to save money while protecting the environment for future generations.

Please reference ENERGY STAR® related information from www.energystar.gov.

As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, MiTAC Technology Corporation has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.

An ENERGY STAR® qualified computer uses 70 % less electricity than computers without enabled power management features.

Earning the ENERGY STAR®

•When every home office is powered by equipment that has earned the ENERGY STAR®, the change will keep over 289 billion pounds of greenhouse gases out of the air.

•If left inactive, ENERGY STAR® qualified computers enter a low-power mode and may use 15 watts or less. New chip technologies make power management features more reliable, dependable, and user-friendly than even just a few years ago.

•Spending a large portion of time in low-power mode not only saves energy, but helps equipment run cooler and last longer.

•Businesses that use ENERGY STAR® enabled office equipment may realize additional savings on air conditioning and maintenance.

•Over its lifetime, ENERGY STAR® qualified equipment in a single home office (e.g., computer, monitor, printer, and fax) can save enough electricity to light an entire home for more than 4 years.

•Power management (“sleep settings”) on computers and monitors can result in much savings annually.

Remember, saving energy prevents pollution

Because most computer equipment is left on 24 hours a day, power management features are important for saving energy and are an easy way to reduce air pollution. By using less energy, these products help lower consumers’ utility bills, and prevent greenhouse gas emissions.

Getting Your Device Ready for Use

Connecting to AC Power and Charging the Battery

Be sure to fully charge the battery before using your device for the first time.

1.Plug the DC cord of the AC adapter into the power connector of the device ( 1 ).

2.Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the AC adapter and the male end into an electrical outlet ( 2 ).

1

3. The charge indicator glows in amber when charging is in progress. Do not disconnect your device from AC power until the battery is fully charged, as indicated by the amber indicator turning into green. This will take a couple of hours.

CAUTION: For optimal performance of the lithium battery, take note of the following:

• Use the included AC adapter only.

•There is no need to fully discharge the battery before charging. You can charge the battery before it is discharged.

•Do not charge the battery where the temperature is high (e.g. in direct sunlight).

•As a protection against damage, your device stops charging when the battery’s temperature is extremely high or low. In high temperature conditions, the charging stops when the battery’s temperature gets above 70 °C (158 °F) and continues when the temperature lowers to 60 °C (140 F). In low temperature conditions, the charging stops when the temperature gets below -5 °C (23 °F) and continues when the temperature rises to 0 °C (32 °F).

•If you will not use the product for a long period of time, be sure to fully charge the battery at least once every two weeks. Over discharge of the battery can affect the charging performance.

16

NAUTIZ X7 Manual - Chapter 1

Getting Your Device Ready for Use

Performing the Initial Startup

When turning on your device for the very first time, you will be guided through a setup process.

1.Make sure that your device is either connected to AC power or the battery has power.

2.Press the power button to turn on your device.

The backlight of the keypad will light up and, after a few seconds, the setup screen appears.

3.Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup wizard.

4.For models with the phone function only:

If a SIM card has been inserted and the mobile phone network operator (or you) has set the PIN, you will be prompted to enter the PIN. Enter the PIN and tap Enter.

If a SIM card has not been inserted yet, a message of an invalid or missing SIM card will appear on the screen. You can tap Cancel to continue the startup procedure.

5.After the setup is completed, the Today screen appears. You can now use your device.

Synchronizing with Your Computer

ActiveSync and Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) provide an easy way to synchronize data on a Windowsbased computer with your device. ActiveSync works on computers that have the Windows XP operating systems. WMDC works only on computers that have Windows Vista.

ActiveSync and WMDC act as gateways between your device and your computer for transferring Outlook e-mail, appointments, contacts, and tasks, and media such as pictures, music, and videos. You can also use the Explore feature in either program to move files or programs from your computer to your device.

Installing ActiveSync or WMDC

If you’re using Windows XP or earlier versions of Windows, install ActiveSync with the supplied Getting Started Disc. If you’re using Windows Vista, download and install Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1. (Visit the Microsoft website to download the program and to obtain operating instructions.)

NOTE:

•Before installation, make sure that you have Microsoft Outlook installed on your computer.

•Connect your device to the computer AFTER Windows Mobile Device Center or ActiveSync is installed.

•ActiveSync connection problems may occur in some specific cases. They are likely caused by interoperability with desktop firewall applications or applications that manage network traffic. For troubleshooting information, visit the Microsoft web site.

After the software installation, connect your device to your computer with

the USB cable and you are ready to synchronize.

17

NAUTIZ X7 Manual - Chapter 1

Using Options

Using an SD Card

Your device has a SD (Secure Digital) card slot where you can insert an SD/SDHC memory card or SDIO card. To insert an SD card:

1

Remove the rubber protection cap by unfastening two screws.

2

Insert the card into the slot, with the connector pointing to the slot and its label facing the back of the device.

Replace the cap and secure with the two screws. The cap is required for the waterproof capability of your device.

NOTE: A taller cap is available as an option for protecting an SDIO card which is larger.

Using the Hand Strap

You can attach the hand strap to your device.
